This week’s science roundup is serving up cosmic discoveries, ancient eggs, and moon bricks that could build the future! 🪐🦖🌕
AI Detects Tiny Planets: Chinese scientists just leveled up space exploration using AI! 🧠✨ An algorithm trained on NASA’s Kepler telescope data discovered five Earth-sized planets—each one orbits its star in less than a day. Talk about a speedrun! This breakthrough could fast-track the hunt for habitable worlds.
Teeny Dino Egg Mystery: Move over, Jurassic Park! Researchers in Jiangxi Province found the world’s smallest dinosaur egg—just 2.5cm long! 🥚 The clutch of six eggs, hidden for 80 million years, might reveal secrets about dino diversity and parenting habits. Who knew construction sites were time capsules?
Moon Base DIY: Lunar living just got closer! Chinese scientists crafted ultra-strong 'moon bricks' from simulated lunar soil. These bad boys are 3x tougher than concrete. 🧱🌙 They’ll hitch a ride to China’s space station for durability tests, with the first brick returning to Earth by 2025. Future astronauts, pack your toolkits!
SpaceX’s Chopstick Catch: Elon Musk’s Starship just nailed its wildest stunt yet! 🚀 On its fifth test flight, the rocket’s booster was caught mid-air by giant metal arms (dubbed 'chopsticks'). No splashdowns this time—just pure sci-fi vibes. Next stop: Mars?
